Where is the new underground? Who are the international punk gypsy’s? Are there even new, true anti-conformist counter culture dissidents? The kind pop culture can’t yet romanticize?
They take it to the streets of Tel Aviv in the video for ALLENBY, the new single from YEMEN BLUES. And let’s face it, there’s nothing more punk that going against the grain in fucking Tel Aviv. See what it is to be a real radical in this inspired alt electro masterpiece. From the characters to the experimental dance routines, everything is in its right place on this masterpiece. Historically it recalls the legacy of Prodigy and The Sex Pistols while paying homage to a new underground, one where the heroes take it to the streets. Let’s get weird.
The video for My Expectations is a striking visual portrait. It resonates with the lyrical narrative. The vulnerable poetic musings by Jaya Bremer rip the band-aid off of deep wounds and let them bleed out. The video is a combination of psychosis and layered complexities, with the alternate snapshots adding to the depth of the moment.
It culminates with the artists hitting her limit. It finds her responding with empowered conviction. It’s you, not her, who needs to rethink their purpose in the world. Stylistically it connects with the works of St Vincent and Mitski. Check it out.
Marry Cherry embraces their adoration for modern mod psychedelia in the video for their new single New Direction. The aesthetic comes full circle in these inspired visuals. The legacies of Jim Morrison and INXS are honored through the singers presence, while the obscurity of Brian Jonestown Massacre is honored in the arrangement. The band would have flourished in Manchesters classic Factory Club. We dig it. Get in.
Class is in session on BRIGHT, the new single from Levi Evans. What even is school in 2024? The new kids are alright, and fully awakened by the electric vestibules that offer them deliverance from their community traps.
The internet has empowered a generation beyond the confides of college credibilities. School should be fun in 2024, but maybe not this fun. The narrative in both song and video suggest Evans is hip to these changes. Stylistically it finds a new modern middle ground between rap and rock in the spirit of The Beastie Boys. Check it out.
